Today she learned the fine art of smushing bananas.

She’s pulling up on everything she can find.

Happy girl playing with her San Diego bear waiting for her friends to come over and take her to the pool!

Maya loves her new little people princess castle!

We headed to Wichita on Wednesday, Kaitlin came with us this time and we had a great time.  We had dinner and then did some shopping and walking.

Baby girl loves to look at the ducks.

Its so much fun to play with your cousin’s toys when they’re not there to supervise!

We got a shot of the cake (guess who helped pick it out?), but no picture of the b-day girl!  We’ll have to get some pics soon to post!

Here’s Maya wishing she was smaller so she could ride in the bouncy seat.

We tried to get a group shot of the babies, but as it turns out, they weren’t into cooperating.

The twins Faye & Evelyn are standing in the back and next to them is Sawyer & mommy Jill. In the front L is mommy Stephanie with son Liam, Eva, Keira & Maya.

Somebody adores her uncle!

Cousin Griffin played for her too.

Bryton & Misty came over for a play date last week and we had a great time catching up.  We hope to see Dan soon, maybe at the housewarming?!

The boy’s got talent!

Drummer boy

Bryton is just beautiful (or handsome, can you tell I have a girl?) and has the sweetest personality.  It was such a pleasure getting to meet him!
